Obama currently has a 51 percent approval rating according to the latest poll and a 49% average overall according to RCP
How does that make you feel lol?
Bretty good. I'm a progressive Democrat who enthusiastically supported obama in both elections. I'm also feeling the bern, but will vote for hillary in the general. Would vote for Obama a third time if I could.
>>73176773
That most people don't actually pay attention to what he does.
Just a reminder. When bush left office he had a 22 percent approval rating lol.
>>73176931
Democrats just do it better even though republicans like to portray themselves as fixers of democratic policies. Yet nothing but bad times under republicans and nothing but good times under democrats. Funny how that works out.
Obama alone is going to push Hilary to the top once bernie drops out. Trump doesn't stand a chance in hell.
>>73177315
Bush literally destroyed the GOP he was so bad. When trump loses in a landslide, there will be nothing left. Three consecutive electoral landslide defeats = RIP GOP
>>73177444
I don't want to doubt the power of triples, but what happens if Trump wins?

I think you're forgetting who controls congress, friends.
Though, really, you two must be complete retards. Joblessness is through the roof, racial tension has been purposely fostered and agitated, household income is down and down even higher for black americans, and we prostrate ourselves in front of the rest of the world for their benefit and at our expense.
>>73177315
Go ahead and start listing point where Bush and Obama have actually differed in the end. Leave lipservice out of it, focus on actions.
>>73176773
fan-fucking-tastic that we have a President who makes minimal fuckups and that the nation has, for the most part, not fallen for the doom and gloom lies being sold by his opposition
we're gonna miss him, guarantee it, considering his replacements aren't ideal
>>73177603
>if Trump wins?
>if
>>73177717
Yet in reality he behaves just like the previous administration that you claim led us to ruin.
How odd.
>>73176773
Well to be fair he did accomplish what he said he will do, Destory the Coal industry skyrocketing electricity prices in those locations, "get us out of war" lol, and throughly butt rape every citizen with his healthcare plan. He also managed to acheive a goal of not having over 3% growth even once his entire presidency a goal that hasn't been achieved for 70 years.

Obama has:
Meaningful health care reform
*presumably* stopped torturing on a mass scale
scaled back our boots on the ground
reduced our spending to an acceptable level
stabilized a broken economy using Keynesian theory
returned the US to a level of respect amongt the intl. community
Bush:
*rightfully* got engaged in conflict in Afghanistan
That's all I got for Bush's positives, I'm going to keep it positive though
Their negatives are more similar though, if you think about it, Guantanamo Bay, War on Terror, PATRIOT Act, both are ardent defenders of it but there's no doubt Bush was a disaster, and here we are on the verge of electing another bumbling fool

Pretty much confirms everything I suspected about how low information Democrats are considering Obama doubled down on everything Bush and Obamacare is cronyist garbage that the health insurance industry tried to get Republicans to pass in the 90s.

>Obama has:
>Meaningful health care reform
Obamacare is a huge failure. 22 out of the 24 startups for it have failed. United Healthcare is pulling out of it because they've lost half a billion. The writing was on the wall last year.
>*presumably* stopped torturing on a mass scale
>scaled back our boots on the ground
Top kek
>reduced our spending to an acceptable level
Reduced spending is a false. America is on life support. The economy is still in a depression.
>stabilized a broken economy using Keynesian theory
Keynesian economists are the reason we're in this mess.
>returned the US to a level of respect amongt the intl. community
No one respects the USA. Obama is lined up to be our 3rd or 4th worst president in the history of this country.
All this cuck talk.
>>73178293
>Meaningful health care reform
LOLOLOL are you serious defending that corporo-facist measure to guarantee health insurers a lucrative income?
>*presumably* stopped torturing on a mass scale
Even you dont believe it.
>scaled back our boots on the ground
Meaningless. The wars are ongoing and he started several more small scale ones. Ruined the fuck out of libya and kicked off the immigration crisis.
>reduced our spending to an acceptable level
Added trillions to the debt in record time.
>stabilized a broken economy using Keynesian theory
See above, nothing stabilized about it. It's volatile.
>returned the US to a level of respect amongt the intl. community
That's not respect. No respect is given to the gigantic tools you take advantage of.
Didnt he just get snubbed by the saudis, too? Why exactly is he dead set on making allies out of a nation that's been manipulating us and was almost certainly involved in 9/11?
Such respect!

Doubled the deficit, doubled the debt. Obama is the worst president in a while. even though he ran his presidential campaign on "i will cut the deficit in half" and "the big guys have to play by the rules" and "change"
>>73178839
You don't really know how you are perceived by the rest of the world. USA became a joke during the reign of GWB.
In Europe Obama is really, really popular and the NSA scandal made the rest of the world fear your secret services more than ever. Just because Obama doesn't use war rhetoric it doesn't mean that anyone thinks the USA is weaker. We just think that he is a more peaceful leader.

One could argue that that's not an American.
It's not isolationist talk. It's ok if you respect us for who we are, but changing our society to be more liked by europeans of all people is pathetic.
>>73180446
He was born in America, is older than 35, and has been in residence longer than 14 years, ergo he is qualified.

Why do leftists think changes politicians make are supposed to have an immediate effect? More often than not the prosperity we experience under Democrat leadership is due to the Republican that came before them.
Your impatient childish attitudes are killing this country.
>>73180986
By that notion, nobody is qualified. What makes a presidential candidate qualifiable? All you need is a will to make the country stronger. I'm sorry you have to watch Trump take control, but let it happen.

Newfag shill
>>73180446
You liberals are dumb as fuck you go off the resume and not the track record.
Trump is the better leader, all Hillary does is pander to minorities and women. I often find myself saying "so white men, the most productive members of society by far (the rest really do nothing) want Trump, and minorities and women who essentially do nothing to advance society and actually are holding advancement back want Hillary. Isn't it sad that the productive people are now vastly outnumbered by trash?"
Thanks a lot liberal our country will slowly become the third world because of you.
>>73181018
yeah, I'm still feeling the wealth from that Bush stimulus check
>>73181281
Hardly. If he were clueless he wouldnt be the nominee. Surely even you can see that.
i'd be OK with another 4 years with Obama tbqh
Better than crooked hillary
>>73181522
He's the nominee because half of the GOP base is fucking retarded
>>73181597
Or maybe because all of his opponents were shysters with too much in common with the shyster democrats.

No he really is a wildcard. His Presidency is either going to be stellar or stunningly horrific, I'm still not sure which one though.
>>73176773

Trump doesn't pander to anyone?

>>73180030
>In Europe Obama is really, really popular and the NSA scandal made the rest of the world fear your secret services more than ever.
I heavily, heavily, heavily disagree. I hate Obongo. Sure, GWB was a meme generator and got the USA into the idiotic Iraq War. But Obongo was the nail in the coffin. I find him WORSE than GWB. He's weak, he is a SJW president, he strengthened the left in the bastion against communism and socialism which the USA used to be, he normalized mental illnesses, he was the turning point for all of the crazyness and decadence which infested the West, he weakened our own national stances, he was bad on foreign policy. And don't get me started on the NSA: they single handedly ruined the reputation of the USA, destroyed our trust and deligitamized NATO in Germany. Very, very bad.
And besides: the NSA didn't prevent Paris 1 and 2 or Bruxelles. So it remains as an ineffective, overblown institution that feels more like its main purpose is economic espionage and big data mining instead of counter terrorism.
>>73176931
Same. I enjoy wallowing in my smugness here as well, married + a landowner and nothing it more satisfying than being a "libtard" and laughing at underage NEETs complaining about things they dont fully understand.
>>73181213
So what you're telling me is that there was no prosperity under or after the Eisenhower and Reagan administrations?
Boy, I really ought to read more Howard Zinn ;^)
>>73181501
Bush was a shitshow, but you being too young to remember any other Republican presidents doesn't make what I said any less true. If you can't see the writing on the wall, that is truly unfortunate.
>>73181714
>no political experience on any level
Experience in what? Collecting a paycheck for 30 years while providing nothing of value? Also, business is 90% politics in itself.
>wants to shortcut straight to President
What does this even mean? If you want to see what a shortcut to the presidency looks like, read up on Obama.
>but it's OK because he spent his life amassing a fortune for himself
He's ambitious and gets results. It's not everything, but it's something.
> His Presidency is either going to be stellar or stunningly horrific
I'll take my chances. Hilldog has already proven herself to be a threat to the US and other nations.
How many world leaders has Trump assassinated, then laughed about it on 60 minutes?
When did Trump put top secret emails on a personal server and then let someone with ties to the saudi government rummage through them at leisure?

And February and March were revised down by 19K jobs each. So February is now 223,000 and March 196,000.

Underrated post.
Ash Carter, the Sec of Defense, has been the acting President for months now.
Obama has been on the party circuit, playing golf and preparing for his speaking career.
If he's not doing anything, his approval rate will remain steady.
